Before I die.....

Before you chose to write about this topic, I had read an article on Time Magazine in which a nurse revealed 5 regrets patients made in their deathbed.  The five 5 things were:


  1.  I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
  2. I wish I didn’t work so hard.
  3. I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
  4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends
  5. I wish that I had let myself be happier


We usually think about the things we want to do and soon as we accomplish them, we want to do something else.  That’s the way our lives go on, I have thought about this article a lot because we take simple things for granted!. Nobody regrets something like “Oh, I should have got a bigger house” or “I should have got Ph.D. degree”, when people are dying they think about their family, friends, someone they loved.  The most important thing I want to do before I die is living my life as I want it to be but I think I should not forget that love and people around me are really important. It’s so easy to get caught up in life, that we usually don’t give our family and friends enough time that's why some people end up in their deathbed completely alone.  (222)
